Description

Die Anmeldung betrifft Enyzm-haltige Reinigungsmittel und Reinigungsverfahren unter Einsatz dieser Mittel. Gegenstand dieser Anmeldung sind insbesondere Reinigungsmittel, die spezifische Proteasen in Kombination mit 4-Formylphenylboronsäure und mindestens einem weiteren Enzym enthalten und Reinigungsverfahren, in deren Verlauf diese Mittel eingesetzt werden.
Reinigungsmittel, insbesondere Reinigungsmittel für das maschinelle Geschirrspülen und die Textilreinigung, enthalten in der Regel neben den Gerüststoffen und Tensiden als weiteren reinigungsaktiven Wirkstoff ein oder mehrere Enzyme. Typische reinigungsaktive Enzyme sind die Proteasen, die Amylasen sowie Lipasen und Cellulasen.
Ein Nachteil von Protease- und Amylase-haltigen Reinigungsmitteln aus dem Stand der Technik ist deren unzureichende Lagerstabilität und deren mangelnde amylolytische Aktivität. Häufig führt die Anwesenheit von Protease zum Verlust amylolytischer Aktivität, da die Protease die Amylase inaktiviert. Das Wasch- oder Reinigungsmittel zeigt dann keine optimale Reinigungsleistung mehr. Der vorliegenden Anmeldung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den genannten Nachteil zu überwinden und protease- und amylasehaltige Reinigungsmittel bereitzustellen, die ausreichend lagerstabil sind und eine verbesserte amylolytische Aktivität aufweisen.
Überraschenderweise wurde festgestellt, dass Reinigungsmittel, die spezifische Proteasen in Kombination mit 4-Formylphenylboronsäure und mindestens einem weiteren Enzym enthalten, gegenüber Reinigungsmitteln auf Basis üblicher Proteasen eine verbesserte Reinigungsleistung aufweisen. Die 4-Formylphenylboronsäure ist ein aus dem Stand der Technik bekannter Proteaseinhibitor, dessen inhibierende Wirkung in dem erteilten europäischen Patent EP 832 174 B1 (Novozymes) beschrieben wird. Reinigungsmittel, die Protease, Amylase sowie 4-Formylphenylboronsäure enthalten, werden beispielsweise in den internationalen Anmeldungen WO 2010/034736 A1 (Unilever) und WO2010/092066 (Henkel AG & Co. KGaA) offenbart. WO2012/080202 (Henkel AG & Co. KGaA) offenbart eine flüssige Waschmittelzusammensetzung enthaltend eine Proteasemutante aus B. lentus in Kombination mit ein Amylase, wobei die Zusammensetzung ausreichend lagerstabil ist und eine verbesserte Amylaseaktivität aufweist. Ein erster Gegenstand der vorliegenden Anmeldung ist daher ein Reinigungsmittel, enthaltend

  1. a) mindestens eine Protease, die eine Aminosäuresequenz umfasst, die zu der in SEQ ID NO. 1 angegebenen Aminosäuresequenz über deren Gesamtlänge zu mindestens 95% identisch ist und in der Zählung gemäß SEQ ID NO. 1 an Position 99 die Aminosäure Glutaminsäure (E) aufweist;
  2. b) 4-Formylphenylboronsäure
  3. c) mindestens ein weiteres von der Protease a) verschiendenes Enzym aus der Gruppe der Amylasen, und
  4. d) mindestens ein organisches Lösungsmittel, wobei der Gewichtsanteil des mindestens einen organischen Lösungsmittels am Gesamtgewicht des Reinigungsmittels 0,5 bis 5,0 Gew.-% beträgt.
The application relates to enzyme-containing detergents and cleaning processes using these agents. This application relates in particular to cleaning agents which contain specific proteases in combination with 4-formylphenylboronic acid and at least one further enzyme and to purification processes in the course of which these agents are used.
Detergents, in particular detergents for automatic dishwashing and textile cleaning, generally contain, in addition to the builders and surfactants, one or more enzymes as further active ingredient active in cleaning. Typical cleaning-active enzymes are the proteases, the amylases and lipases and cellulases.
A disadvantage of prior art protease and amylase-containing cleaners is their inadequate storage stability and their lack of amylolytic activity. Often, the presence of protease results in the loss of amylolytic activity as the protease inactivates the amylase. The washing or cleaning agent then no longer shows optimal cleaning performance. The object of the present application is to overcome the mentioned disadvantage and to provide protease- and amylase-containing cleaning agents which are sufficiently storage-stable and have improved amylolytic activity.
It has surprisingly been found that detergents which contain specific proteases in combination with 4-formylphenylboronic acid and at least one further enzyme have improved cleaning performance compared with detergents based on conventional proteases. The 4-formylphenylboronic acid is a protease inhibitor known in the art, its inhibitory activity in the granted European patent EP 832 174 B1 (Novozymes) is described. Detergents containing protease, amylase and 4-formylphenylboronic acid are disclosed, for example, in International Applications WO 2010/034736 A1 (Unilever) and WO2010 / 092066 (Henkel AG & Co. KGaA). WO2012 / 080202 (Henkel AG & Co. KGaA) discloses a liquid detergent composition containing a protease mutant from B. lentus in combination with an amylase, wherein the composition is sufficiently storage stable and has improved amylase activity. A first subject of the present application is therefore a detergent containing
  1. a) at least one protease which comprises an amino acid sequence which corresponds to the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO. 1 amino acid sequence is at least 95% identical over the entire length and in the count according to SEQ ID NO. 1 at position 99 has the amino acid glutamic acid (E);
  2. b) 4-formylphenylboronic acid
  3. c) at least one further enzyme belonging to the protease a) from the group of amylases, and
  4. d) at least one organic solvent, wherein the weight fraction of the at least one organic solvent in the total weight of the cleaning agent is 0.5 to 5.0 wt .-%.

Erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsmittel, welche die vorgenannte Kombination einer spezifischen Protease mit 4-Formylphenylboronsäure und einem weiteren Enzym enthalten sind nicht nur lagerstabil, sondern zeichnen sich im Vergleich zu Reinigungsmitteln des Standes der Technik mit gleichem Proteasegehalt (bezogen auf aktives Enzym) aber unterschiedlicher Protease durch eine höhere enzymatische Reinigungsleistung des weiteren Enzyms c) aus.Detergents according to the invention which contain the abovementioned combination of a specific protease with 4-formylphenylboronic acid and a further enzyme are not only storage-stable, but are distinguished by a higher protease content (based on active enzyme) but different protease compared to prior art detergents enzymatic cleaning power of the further enzyme c).

Ein erster wesentlicher Bestandteil erfindungsgemäßer Reinigungsmittel ist die Protease a).A first essential component of inventive cleaning agents is the protease a).

Vorzugsweise umfasst die Protease a) eine Aminosäuresequenz, die zu der in SEQ ID NO. 1 angegebenen Aminosäuresequenz über deren Gesamtlänge zu mindestens 95% und zunehmend bevorzugt zu mindestens 95,5%, 96%, 96,5%, 97%, 97,5%, 98%, 98,5% und 99% identisch ist und in der Zählung gemäß SEQ ID NO. 1 an Position 99 die Aminosäure Glutaminsäure (E) aufweist. Eine diesbezüglich ganz besonders bevorzugte Protease ist in SEQ ID NO. 3 angegeben.The protease a) preferably comprises an amino acid sequence which corresponds to the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO. 1 is at least 95% and more preferably at least 95.5%, 96%, 96.5%, 97%, 97.5%, 98%, 98.5% and 99% identical over its entire length, and in the count according to SEQ ID NO. 1 at position 99 has the amino acid glutamic acid (E). A particularly preferred protease in this regard is shown in SEQ ID NO. 3 indicated.

Weitere bevorzugte Proteasen sind Proteasen wie vorstehend beschrieben, die ferner an Position 211 in der Zählung gemäß SEQ ID NO. 1 die Aminosäure Leucin (L) aufweisen.Further preferred proteases are proteases as described above, which are furthermore located at position 211 in the counting according to SEQ ID NO. 1 have the amino acid leucine (L).

SEQ ID NO. 1 ist die Sequenz der reifen (maturen) alkalischen Protease aus Bacillus lentus DSM 5483, die offenbart ist in der internationalen Patentanmeldung WO 92/21760 , und auf deren Offenbarung hiermit ausdrücklich Bezug genommen wird. SEQ ID NO. 2 ist die Sequenz der reifen (maturen) Protease Subtilisin 309 aus Bacillus lentus.SEQ ID NO. Figure 1 is the sequence of the mature (mature) alkaline protease from Bacillus lentus DSM 5483, which is disclosed in the international patent application WO 92/21760 , and the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. SEQ ID NO. Figure 2 is the sequence of the mature (mature) protease subtilisin 309 from Bacillus lentus.

Besonders bevorzugte erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsmittel sind dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Protease a) eine Aminosäuresequenz umfasst, die zu der in SEQ ID NO. 1 angegebenen Aminosäuresequenz über deren Gesamtlänge zu mindestens 99% identisch ist und in der Zählung gemäß SEQ ID NO. 1 an Position 99 in die Aminosäure Glutaminsäure (E) aufweist. Ganz besonders bevorzugt weist die Protease a) eine Aminosäuresequenz auf, die in der Zählung gemäß SEQ ID NO. 1 in den Positionen 1-98 und 100-269 SEQ ID NO. 1 entspricht und an Position 99 die Aminosäure Glutaminsäure (E) aufweist. Eine derartige Protease ist in SEQ ID NO. 3 angegeben.Particularly preferred cleaning agents according to the invention are characterized in that the protease a) comprises an amino acid sequence which corresponds to the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO. 1 amino acid sequence is identical to at least 99% over the entire length and in the count according to SEQ ID NO. 1 at position 99 in the amino acid glutamic acid (E). Most preferably, the protease a) has an amino acid sequence which in the count according to SEQ ID NO. 1 in positions 1-98 and 100-269 SEQ ID NO. 1 corresponds to and Position 99 has the amino acid glutamic acid (E). Such a protease is shown in SEQ ID NO. 3 indicated.

Die Bestimmung der Identität von Nukleinsäure- oder Aminosäuresequenzen erfolgt durch einen Sequenzvergleich. Dieser Sequenzvergleich basiert auf dem im Stand der Technik etablierten und üblicherweise genutzten BLAST-Algorithmus (vgl. beispielsweise Altschul, S.F., Gish, W., Miller, W., Myers, E.W. & Lipman, D.J. (1990) "Basic local alignment search tool." J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-410 , und Altschul, Stephan F., Thomas L. Madden, Alejandro A. Schaffer, Jinghui Zhang, Hheng Zhang, Webb Miller, and David J. Lipman (1997): "Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs"; Nucleic Acids Res., 25, S.3389-3402 ) und geschieht prinzipiell dadurch, dass ähnliche Abfolgen von Nukleotiden oder Aminosäuren in den Nukleinsäure- oder Aminosäuresequenzen einander zugeordnet werden. Eine tabellarische Zuordnung der betreffenden Positionen wird als Alignment bezeichnet. Ein weiterer im Stand der Technik verfügbarer Algorithmus ist der FASTA-Algorithmus. Sequenzvergleiche (Alignments), insbesondere multiple Sequenzvergleiche, werden mit Computerprogrammen erstellt. Häufig genutzt werden beispielsweise die Clustal-Serie (vgl. beispielsweise Chenna et al. (2003): Multiple sequence alignment with the Clustal series of programs. Nucleic Acid Research 31, 3497-3500 ), T-Coffee (vgl. beispielsweise Notredame et al. (2000): T-Coffee: A novel method for multiple sequence alignments. J. Mol. Biol. 302, 205-217 ) oder Programme, die auf diesen Programmen beziehungsweise Algorithmen basieren. In der vorliegenden Patentanmeldung wurden alle Sequenzvergleiche (Alignments) mit dem Computer-Programm Vector NTI® Suite 10.3 (Invitrogen Corporation, 1600 Faraday Avenue, Carlsbad, Kalifornien, USA) mit den vorgegebenen Standardparametern erstellt, dessen AlignX-Modul für die Sequenzvergleiche auf ClustalW basiert.The identity of nucleic acid or amino acid sequences is determined by a sequence comparison. This sequence comparison is based on the BLAST algorithm established in the prior art and commonly used (cf., for example, US Pat Altschul, SF, Gish, W., Miller, W., Myers, EW & Lipman, DJ (1990) "Basic local alignment search tool." J. Mol. Biol. 215: 403-410 , and Altschul, Stephan F., Thomas L. Madden, Alejandro A. Schaffer, Jinghui Zhang, Hheng Zhang, Webb Miller, and David J. Lipman (1997): "Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs "; Nucleic Acids Res., 25, pp.3389-3402 ) and happens in principle in that similar sequences of nucleotides or amino acids in the Nucleic acid or amino acid sequences are assigned to each other. A tabular assignment of the respective positions is referred to as alignment. Another algorithm available in the prior art is the FASTA algorithm. Sequence comparisons (alignments), in particular multiple sequence comparisons, are created with computer programs. Frequently used, for example, the Clustal series (see, for example Chenna et al. (2003): Multiple sequence alignment with the Clustal series of programs. Nucleic Acid Research 31, 3497-3500 ), T-Coffee (cf., for example Notredame et al. (2000): T-Coffee: A novel method for multiple sequence alignments. J. Mol. Biol. 302, 205-217 ) or programs based on these programs or algorithms. In the present patent application, all alignment comparisons (alignments) were made using the Vector NTI® Suite 10.3 computer program (Invitrogen Corporation, 1600 Faraday Avenue, Carlsbad, California, USA) with the default default parameters whose AlignX module for sequence comparisons is based on ClustalW ,

Solch ein Vergleich erlaubt auch eine Aussage über die Ähnlichkeit der verglichenen Sequenzen zueinander. Sie wird üblicherweise in Prozent Identität, das heißt dem Anteil der identischen Nukleotide oder Aminosäurereste an denselben oder in einem Alignment einander entsprechenden Positionen angegeben. Der weiter gefasste Begriff der Homologie bezieht bei Aminosäuresequenzen konservierte Aminosäure-Austausche in die Betrachtung mit ein, also Aminosäuren mit ähnlicher chemischer Aktivität, da diese innerhalb des Proteins meist ähnliche chemische Aktivitäten ausüben. Daher kann die Ähnlichkeit der verglichenen Sequenzen auch Prozent Homologie oder Prozent Ähnlichkeit angegeben sein. Identitäts- und/oder Homologieangaben können über ganze Polypeptide oder Gene oder nur über einzelne Bereiche getroffen werden. Homologe oder identische Bereiche von verschiedenen Nukleinsäure- oder Aminosäuresequenzen sind daher durch Übereinstimmungen in den Sequenzen definiert. Solche Bereiche weisen oftmals identische Funktionen auf. Sie können klein sein und nur wenige Nukleotide oder Aminosäuren umfassen. Oftmals üben solche kleinen Bereiche für die Gesamtaktivität des Proteins essentielle Funktionen aus. Es kann daher sinnvoll sein, Sequenzübereinstimmungen nur auf einzelne, gegebenenfalls kleine Bereiche zu beziehen. Soweit nicht anders angegeben beziehen sich Identitäts- oder Homologieangaben in der vorliegenden Anmeldung aber auf die Gesamtlänge der jeweils angegebenen Nukleinsäure- oder Aminosäuresäuresequenz.Such a comparison also allows a statement about the similarity of the compared sequences to each other. It is usually given in percent identity, that is, the proportion of identical nucleotides or amino acid residues at the same or in an alignment corresponding positions. The broader concept of homology involves conserved amino acid substitutions in the consideration of amino acid sequences, that is, amino acids with similar chemical activity, as these usually perform similar chemical activities within the protein. Therefore, the similarity of the sequences compared may also be stated as percent homology or percent similarity. Identity and / or homology information can be made about whole polypeptides or genes or only over individual regions. Homologous or identical regions of different nucleic acid or amino acid sequences are therefore defined by matches in the sequences. Such areas often have identical functions. They can be small and comprise only a few nucleotides or amino acids. Often, such small regions exert essential functions for the overall activity of the protein. It may therefore be useful to relate sequence matches only to individual, possibly small areas. Unless otherwise indicated, identity or homology information in the present application, however, refers to the total length of the particular nucleic acid or amino acid sequence indicated.

Der auf aktives Protein bezogene Gewichtsanteil der Protease a) am Gesamtgewicht erfindungsgemäß bevorzugter Reinigungsmittel beträgt vorzugsweise 0,005 bis 1,0 Gew.-%, bevorzugt 0,01 bis 0,5 Gew.-% und insbesondere 0,02 bis 0,2 Gew.-%. Die Proteinkonzentration kann mit Hilfe bekannter Methoden, zum Beispiel dem BCA-Verfahren (Bicinchoninsäure; 2,2'-Bichinolyl-4,4'-dicarbonsäure) oder dem Biuret-Verfahren ( A. G. Gornall, C. S. Bardawill und M.M. David, J. Biol. Chem., 177 (1948), S. 751-766 ) bestimmt werden. Die Bestimmung der Aktivproteinkonzentration erfolgte diesbezüglich über eine Titration der aktiven Zentren unter Verwendung eines geeigneten irreversiblen Inhibitors (für Proteasen beispielsweise Phenylmethylsulfonylfluorid (PMSF)) und Bestimmung der Restaktivität (vgl. M. Bender et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 88, 24 (1966), S. 5890-5913 ).The active protein-based weight fraction of the protease a) in the total weight of cleaning agents preferred according to the invention is preferably 0.005 to 1.0% by weight, preferably 0.01 to 0.5% by weight and in particular 0.02 to 0.2% by weight. -%. The protein concentration can be determined by known methods, for example the BCA method (bicinchoninic acid, 2,2'-biquinolyl-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid) or the biuret method ( Gornall AG, CS Bardawill and MM David, J. Biol. Chem., 177 (1948), pp. 751-766 ). The determination of the active protein concentration was in this respect via a titration of the active sites using a suitable irreversible inhibitor (for proteases, for example Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF)) and determination of the residual activity (cf. Bender, M., et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 88, 24 (1966), p. 5890-5913 ).

Die erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsmittel enthalten als zweiten wesentlichen Bestandteil 4-Formylphenylboronsäure (4-FPBA). Der Gewichtsanteil der 4-Formylphenylboronsäure am Gesamtgewicht des Reinigungsmittels beträgt vorzugsweise 0,0005 bis 2,0 Gew.-%, bevorzugt 0,001 bis 1,0 Gew.-% und insbesondere 0,01 bis 0,1 Gew.-%.The cleaning agents according to the invention contain as the second essential constituent 4-formylphenylboronic acid (4-FPBA). The proportion by weight of 4-formylphenylboronic acid in the total weight of the cleaning agent is preferably from 0.0005 to 2.0 wt .-%, preferably 0.001 to 1.0 wt .-% and in particular 0.01 to 0.1 wt .-%.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsmittel enthalten als weiteren wesentlichen Bestandteil c) mindestens ein weiteres Enzym. Als Enzym c) einsetzbar sind beispielsweise Lipasen oder Cutinasen, insbesondere wegen ihrer Triglycerid-spaltenden Aktivitäten, aber auch, um aus geeigneten Vorstufen in situ Persäuren zu erzeugen. Hierzu gehören beispielsweise die ursprünglich aus Humicola lanuginosa (Thermomyces lanuginosus) erhältlichen, beziehungsweise weiterentwickelten Lipasen, insbesondere solche mit dem Aminosäureaustausch D96L. Hierzu gehören beispielsweise die ursprünglich aus Humicola lanuginosa (Thermomyces lanuginosus) erhältlichen, beziehungsweise weiterentwickelten Lipasen, insbesondere solche mit einem oder mehreren der folgenden Aminosäureaustausche ausgehend von der genannten Lipase in den Positionen D96L, T213R und/oder N233R., besonders bevorzugt T213R und N233R. Des weiteren sind beispielsweise die Cutinasen einsetzbar, die ursprünglich aus Fusarium solani pisi und Humicola insolens isoliert worden sind. Einsetzbar sind weiterhin Lipasen, beziehungsweise Cutinasen, deren Ausgangsenzyme ursprünglich aus Pseudomonas mendocina und Fusarium solanii isoliert worden sind.The cleaning agents according to the invention contain as further essential component c) at least one further enzyme. For example, lipases or cutinases can be used as enzyme c), in particular because of their triglyceride-cleaving activities, but also in order to generate peracids in situ from suitable precursors. These include, for example, the lipases originally obtainable from Humicola lanuginosa ( Thermomyces lanuginosus ) or further developed, in particular those with the amino acid exchange D96L. These include, for example, the lipases which are obtainable or further developed from Humicola lanuginosa ( Thermomyces lanuginosus ), in particular those having one or more of the following amino acid exchanges starting from said lipase in positions D96L, T213R and / or N233R, particularly preferably T213R and N233R. Furthermore, for example, the cutinases can be used, which were originally isolated from Fusarium solani pisi and Humicola insolens . It is also possible to use lipases, or cutinases, whose initial enzymes were originally isolated from Pseudomonas mendocina and Fusarium solanii .

Die erfindungsgemäßen Mittel können auch Cellulasen oder Hemicellulasen wie Mannanasen, Xanthanlyasen, Pektinlyasen (=Pektinasen), Pektinesterasen, Pektatlyasen, Xyloglucanasen (=Xylanasen), Pullulanasen oder β-Glucanasen enthalten.The agents according to the invention may also contain cellulases or hemicellulases such as mannanases, xanthan lyases, pectin lyases (= pectinases), pectin esterases, pectate lyases, xyloglucanases (= xylanases), pullulanases or β-glucanases.

Zur Erhöhung der bleichenden Wirkung können erfindungsgemäß Oxidoreduktasen, beispielsweise Oxidasen, Oxygenasen, Katalasen, Peroxidasen, wie Halo-, Chloro-, Bromo-, Lignin-, Glucose- oder Mangan-peroxidasen, Dioxygenasen oder Laccasen (Phenoloxidasen, Polyphenoloxidasen) eingesetzt werden. Vorteilhafterweise werden zusätzlich vorzugsweise organische, besonders bevorzugt aromatische, mit den Enzymen wechselwirkende Verbindungen zugegeben, um die Aktivität der betreffenden Oxidoreduktasen zu verstärken (Enhancer) oder um bei stark unterschiedlichen Redoxpotentialen zwischen den oxidierenden Enzymen und den Anschmutzungen den Elektronenfluss zu gewährleisten (Mediatoren).Oxidoreductases, for example oxidases, oxygenases, catalases, peroxidases, such as halo, chloro, bromo, lignin, glucose or manganese peroxidases, dioxygenases or laccases (phenol oxidases, polyphenol oxidases) can be used according to the invention to increase the bleaching effect. Advantageously, it is additionally preferred to add organic, particularly preferably aromatic, compounds which interact with the enzymes in order to enhance the activity of the relevant oxidoreductases (enhancers) or to ensure the flow of electrons (mediators) at greatly varying redox potentials between the oxidizing enzymes and the soils.

Mit besonderem Vorzug enthalten die erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsmittel als Enzym c) mindestens eine Amylase. Eine Amylase ist ein Enzym wie einleitend beschrieben. Für Amylasen können synonyme Begriffe verwendet werden, beispielsweise 1,4-alpha-D-Glucan-Glucanohydrolase oder Glycogenase. Erfindungsgemäß bevorzugte Amylasen sind α-Amylasen. Entscheidend dafür, ob ein Enzym eine α-Amylase im Sinne der Erfindung ist, ist deren Fähigkeit zur Hydrolyse von a(1-4)-Glykosidbindungen in der Amylose der Stärke.With particular preference the detergents according to the invention contain as enzyme c) at least one amylase. An amylase is an enzyme as described in the introduction. For amylases, synonymous terms may be used, for example, 1,4-alpha-D-glucan glucanohydrolase or glycogenase. Amylases preferred according to the invention are .alpha.-amylases. Crucial for determining whether an enzyme is an α-amylase according to the invention is its ability to hydrolyze a (1-4) -glycoside bonds in the amylose of the starch.

Brauchbare organische Gerüstsubstanzen sind beispielsweise die in Form der freien Säure und/oder ihrer Natriumsalze einsetzbaren Polycarbonsäuren, wobei unter Polycarbonsäuren solche Carbonsäuren verstanden werden, die mehr als eine Säurefunktion tragen. Beispielsweise sind dies Citronensäure, Adipinsäure, Bernsteinsäure, Glutarsäure, Äpfelsäure, Weinsäure, Maleinsäure, Fumarsäure, Zuckersäuren, Aminocarbonsäuren, Nitrilotriessigsäure (NTA), sofern ein derartiger Einsatz aus ökologischen Gründen nicht zu beanstanden ist, sowie Mischungen aus diesen. Die freien Säuren besitzen neben ihrer Builderwirkung typischerweise auch die Eigenschaft einer Säuerungskomponente und dienen somit auch zur Einstellung eines niedrigeren und milderen pH-Wertes von Wasch- oder Reinigungsmitteln. Insbesondere sind hierbei Citronensäure, Bernsteinsäure, Glutarsäure, Adipinsäure, Gluconsäure und beliebige Mischungen aus diesen zu nennen. Mit besonderem Vorzug wird als Gerüstsubstanz die Citronensäure oder Salze der Citronensäure eingesetzt. Eine weitere besonders bevorzugte Gerüstsubstanz ist die Methylglycindiessidsäure (MGDA).Useful organic builders are, for example, the polycarboxylic acids which can be used in the form of the free acid and / or their sodium salts, polycarboxylic acids meaning those carboxylic acids which carry more than one acid function. These are, for example, citric acid, adipic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, sugar acids, aminocarboxylic acids, nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), if such use is not objectionable for ecological reasons, and mixtures of these. In addition to their builder effect, the free acids also typically have the property of an acidifying component and thus also serve to set a lower and milder pH of detergents or cleaners. In particular, citric acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, gluconic acid and any desired mixtures of these can be mentioned here. The citric acid or salts of citric acid are used with particular preference as builder substance. Another particularly preferred builder substance is methylglycine diacid (MGDA).

Als Gerüststoffe sind weiter polymere Polycarboxylate geeignet, dies sind beispielsweise die Alkalimetallsalze der Polyacrylsäure oder der Polymethacrylsäure, beispielsweise solche mit einer relativen Molekülmasse von 500 bis 70000 g/mol.Further suitable builders are polymeric polycarboxylates, for example the alkali metal salts of polyacrylic acid or of polymethacrylic acid, for example those having a relative molecular mass of from 500 to 70,000 g / mol.

Bei den für polymere Polycarboxylate angegebenen Molmassen handelt es sich im Sinne dieser Schrift um gewichtsmittlere Molmassen Mw der jeweiligen Säureform, die grundsätzlich mittels Gelpermeationschromatographie (GPC) bestimmt wurden, wobei ein UV-Detektor eingesetzt wurde. Die Messung erfolgte dabei gegen einen externen Polyacrylsäure-Standard, der aufgrund seiner strukturellen Verwandtschaft mit den untersuchten Polymeren realistische Molgewichtswerte liefert. Diese Angaben weichen deutlich von den Molgewichtsangaben ab, bei denen Polystyrolsulfonsäuren als Standard eingesetzt werden. Die gegen Polystyrolsulfonsäuren gemessenen Molmassen sind in der Regel deutlich höher als die in dieser Schrift angegebenen Molmassen.For the purposes of this document, the molecular weights stated for polymeric polycarboxylates are weight-average molar masses M w of the particular acid form, which were determined in principle by means of gel permeation chromatography (GPC), a UV detector being used. The measurement was carried out against an external polyacrylic acid standard, which provides realistic molecular weight values due to its structural relationship with the polymers investigated. These data differ significantly from the molecular weight data, in which polystyrene sulfonic acids are used as standard. The against polystyrenesulfonic acids measured molar masses are generally much higher than the molecular weights specified in this document.

Geeignete Polymere sind insbesondere Polyacrylate, die bevorzugt eine Molekülmasse von 2000 bis 20000 g/mol aufweisen. Aufgrund ihrer überlegenen Löslichkeit können aus dieser Gruppe wiederum die kurzkettigen Polyacrylate, die Molmassen von 2000 bis 10000 g/mol, und besonders bevorzugt von 3000 bis 5000 g/mol, aufweisen, bevorzugt sein.Suitable polymers are, in particular, polyacrylates which preferably have a molecular weight of 2,000 to 20,000 g / mol. Because of their superior solubility, the short-chain polyacrylates, which have molar masses of from 2000 to 10000 g / mol, and particularly preferably from 3000 to 5000 g / mol, may again be preferred from this group.

Geeignet sind weiterhin copolymere Polycarboxylate, insbesondere solche der Acrylsäure mit Methacrylsäure und der Acrylsäure oder Methacrylsäure mit Maleinsäure. Als besonders geeignet haben sich Copolymere der Acrylsäure mit Maleinsäure erwiesen, die 50 bis 90 Gew.-% Acrylsäure und 50 bis 10 Gew.-% Maleinsäure enthalten. Ihre relative Molekülmasse, bezogen auf freie Säuren, beträgt im allgemeinen 2000 bis 70000 g/mol, vorzugsweise 20000 bis 50000 g/mol und insbesondere 30000 bis 40000 g/mol.Also suitable are copolymeric polycarboxylates, in particular those of acrylic acid with methacrylic acid and of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid with maleic acid. Copolymers of acrylic acid with maleic acid which contain 50 to 90% by weight of acrylic acid and 50 to 10% by weight of maleic acid have proven to be particularly suitable. Their relative molecular weight, based on free acids, is generally from 2000 to 70000 g / mol, preferably from 20,000 to 50,000 g / mol and in particular from 30,000 to 40,000 g / mol.

Dabei wird Ethylendiamin-N,N'-disuccinat (EDDS) bevorzugt in Form seiner Natrium- oder Magnesiumsalze verwendet.
